I used to go into Lasky's in Brent Cross and reformat the DOS PCs on display. When they removed the format program from the installation I came back with it on a floppy disk. 45 years later I worry if I was why they went bust.

cool life tip: go on to ebay and find random old PCs with windows product keys on them

My favorite was the Northern Telecom DisplayPhone with the pull out keyboard. This was way before the internet, we used a proprietary email system named CoCoS (Corporate Communications System), PCs weren’t really a thing yet…

I fear the same will not be true for the bandits.

Has anyone run a game where the PCs' nemesis was a flock of pissed off ravens?

Ich bin ehrlich gesagt sehr froh, dass es in meiner frühen Jungend weder PCs, Internet noch Handys, und nur 3 s/w TV Programme uninteresannten Inhalts gab. Ich war von frühs bis Dämmerung schlicht mit dem Fahrrad unterwegs.

Irgendwie hätte ich die Zeit gerne nochmal zurück ...

FYI to those that want to play Hydro Thunder: PC version works great on modern PCs using dgVoodoo. It's the most arcade accurate version too.

adoro quando elogiam meus pcs, sinto que é um elogio direcionado a mim

Solidarity with @pcsunion.bsky.social workers at the British Library.

300 workers on strike. Some of them having to take second jobs or taking out loans just to be able to survive.

A Pay "award" below inflation is a pay cut. Unacceptable.

Solidarity - and keep organising! ✊🏼

Vielen Dank noch mal an alle, die sich wegen des PCs gemeldet haben.
Wir haben alles geprüft und nun hat er sich, während ich eine Pizza verdrückt habe, bestellt.

Bubble, geile, diese. 🙏

Nun gehe ich spazieren. Bis später.

Gott, könnte ich viel Freizeit haben, wenn nicht ständig irgendwelche Updates für TVs, Surround Receiver, Handys, PCs, Macs, Software usw. eingespielt würden und danach nichts mehr funktioniert. Und es jedes Mal Stunden dauern würde, bis alles wieder läuft, wie es soll. 🙄

Switch 2 preferred over Steam Deck?

Microsoft announces that 20-30% of the code for some projects is written by AI while they're in the middle of being eviscerated for pushing multiple updates that have been causing instability, crashes, and even bricking people's PCs.

I wonder if these two things are related 🤔
November 12, 2025 at 12:43 AM
apparently these AI pcs have replaced the right ctrl buttons with dedicated copilot buttons. i dont usually wish harm on people but new tech is making me see red

Do you remember John Laws did the ads for Amiga.

Stupid idea, they were advertised as dry business machines to compete with PCs.

Erste im Büro und ich weiß jetzt schon,dass die Absurditätsstufe auf der Arbeit ab heute wieder einen Zahn zulegen wird.

(Wir müssen alle unsere festen PC-Plätze aufgeben,weil die Vorgesetzte an allen PCs jederzeit arbeiten möchte. Sie hat ein eigenes Büro samt PC. Es ist so ufff.)

For Christmas this year, Kat and I have decided to get new PCs. Which is to say, I ordered a bunch of parts today because I will have to build the Christmas presents. 😏

I’m keeping our 3070s for now since our monitors are not HDR anyways. But keeping upgrades in mind for next year!
